    Good idea! Can't figure out how to drill it anyway, without messing it up. I will just have to run the tank empty and drop it, open the breather on top and run a line somewhere. Maybe into the back seat area...the fumes might do me some good :90:

    I drove with the cap off, and it did much better, but still dipped to 3 psi once. It did not sputter as it has in the past, so that was most of my problem.

    Who is it on this site that always says "Do the cheapest and easiest thing first!"

    Shure as heck ain't me :tiphat:

    OOOPS!

    never mind, I spoke too soon. Drove it again to get groceries, and it dropped to 3 and stayed for a while, then zeroed out in second gear. So, it is not a venting problem. Gonna have to get a new fuel pump...Add that to the "evergrowing shopping list" also.

    I may need to take a 2nd job to pay for this horrible addiction/affliction :cry:
